About Dr. Knowles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The daughter of two architects, I grew up in Irvine, CA. I loved to read and wanted to be a writer, but I thought I should have an exciting life to write about, so I spent two years at Georgetown University\u2019s School of Foreign Service before realizing I was monumentally bad at economics. I taught English in Japan for two summers and completed my BA in East Asian Studies at UCLA, already knowing I really wanted to be an English major.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After working in business management in the entertainment industry, I entered the master\u2019s program at Humboldt State University where I earned two degrees in English and became a fellow of the Redwood Writing Project. I also fell in love with teaching. I completed my PhD at the University of Connecticut and worked as an assistant in the Connecticut Writing Project before moving to La Grande in 2000 to join the English\/Writing faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
